Machine and Beamlines

BEAMLINES

The selection of SESAME’s seven Phase 1 beamlines was based on input from five scientific workshops and the early Users’ Meetings in which several hundred Middle East scientists participated, on 70 proposals received, and joint meetings of the Scientific Advisory Committee of SESAME and the now defunct Beamlines Advisory Committee of SESAME.

These beamlines are the following:

XAFS/XRF (X-ray Absorption Fine Structure/X-ray Fluorescence) spectroscopy, is the ‘day-one’ beamline to be completed in September 2017

IR (Infrared Spectromicroscopy), is the second ‘day-one’ beamline, to be completed in November 2017
